Access Network is the last (or first) mile of the telecom infrastructure between the central office and the user

Dial-up through PSTN using DSL and Cable-modem technologies were primary methods for broadband access

Desire to access the Internet with a high-speed connectionand multimedia services requires >1Mbps/user (broadband)

Paradigm shift from Telco-centric (circuit-switched) to IP-

centric (packet-switched) transport

Lack of optical RAM rules out simple extensions to electronic counterparts

Support for heterogeneous traffic: -

bursty/constant bit rate/real time/non real-time-

digital video, telecommuting, multimedia interactive services -

efficient and high speed IP service: multicast /broadcast-

narrow and broadband analog services

Need for capability to internetwork

with network core to support end-to-end connectivity

Introduction

Technology Speed Typical Range

ADSL 2 Mbps 5.5 Km

VDSL 20 Mbps 1.0 Km

Coax 2 Mbps 0.5 Km

WiFi 54 Mbps 0.1Km

WiMax 28 Mbps 15 Km

3G Cellular 10/6 Mbps few Km

Feeder Network Distribution Network

• Fiber needs to be deployed close To The user Premises for broadband services ---FTTP

• Fiber Access supports triple play services (voice, video and data) and is scalable with tree topology

• FTTP is a cost sensitive segment and mandates network resources to be shared

• Passive , point-to-multipoint architectures called passive optical networks (PONs) are widely accepted

• Service providers are adopting content-based revenue as the business model as against BW-based model

• Easy to install, provision, maintain and troubleshoot

• Reliable, high BW platform and smoothly integrates into any CO equipment or out-side plant

Time Division Multiplexing PONs

(TDMPON):• TDMPON uses Passive splitter devices for channel distribution and aggregation through the remote nodes

• IEEE/ITU-T standardized PONs

(G. 983/4 series) are single carrier-based and employ ATM/TDM

- ATM, BPON-

Ethernet PON, GEPON- GPON

Wavelength Division Multiplexing PON (WDMPON):•WDMPON ensures high bandwidth, dynamic service provisioning and transparency

-

In-band signaling that allows a single wavelength for both downstream data and grants transmission

• Access Mechanism-

Data and Control Channels-

Sharing Mechanisms-

Ranging to Counter distance variation-

Collision Control (preamble and guard time)

• Security (denial of service, eavesdropping, masquerading):-

•Scheduling Algorithms -guarantee bandwidth efficiency and fairness between up/down transmissions- keep track of the status of all shared resources

II. Batching earliest departure first

• Scheduler-based MAC protocols in a WDM based Access Network

• Scheduler role in Intra cluster Communication:- Contention–based (Aloha) control trmn. for access requests on control channel - Ranging and Look-ahead features in access grants- Pre-transmission co-ordination based data transmission

• Scheduler role in Inter cluster Communication:-Separate queues for RT and NRT data packets -Priority queuing of traffic (Dynamic BW Management)-O-E-O conversion for mapping intracluster

Simulation Results : Intra-cluster Traffic

Nodes=21, Channels=6, 1 : 50 pkt. ratio, k=1

Effect of control ch. count and look ahead

Observations:• More control channels can improve the delay performance until the load per ONU approaches the

take-off point

(load x ONU/ctrl. ch.s=1)

• Delay performance is much more improved with SCM

•With k=1 to 7, the effect of receiver contention is gradually overcome

improving throughput

Observations:•For a low NRT traffic: The delay difference for NRT data packets

increases with increase in RT traffic, whereas for RT data packets, it decreases more significantly with knee portion around 0.6

•For a low RT traffic:

whereas for RT data packets, it drops linearly with nominal decrease

Conclusions

MAC protocols in a WDM-based optical access network with ring-on-stars topology for incorporating Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation based service differentiation

Scheduling improved with more control channels, sub-carrier multiplexing and look ahead feature

• Real time services (voice, video) benefit in preemptive priority queuing at high real-time traffic

• Non real-time service (data, image) quality not affected by preemptive queuing for low real-time traffic

• Optical Channels (= port count) : 16; OLT Transmit power levels–

Class B PONsLaser Linewidths: 100 MHz-5 GHz range; Wavelength channel spacing: 100/50/25 GHzData rates: 155/622 Mbps; Insertion loss of AWG is 6.5 dB; fiber

span of 20 Km @0.25dB/Km

• Thermal noise dominates the link budget of the wavelength channels in a WDMPON because of cost-effective photo-receivers (6pF capacitors)

• Full FSR has not been used. The output port-aperture is only a fraction of a FSR or the main focal spot

• Receiver waveguide width is typically that of a SM fiber

Conclusions

Impact of transmission impairments in an AWG-based PON

•Gaussian focal-field pattern of the AWG largely determines the signal strength of the demultiplexed

channels at the output ports

•Beat noise effects become more conspicuous in PONs, for increasing values of laser linewidth

especially at the inner ports

•Impairments bring a significant BER variation amongst the ONUs

connected to the output ports of a AWG while employing DFB lasers at the OLT.

Scalability and resource provisioning-

Modular scaling (in terms of clusters)-

Increased resource pool (codes/time slots/RF sub-carriers etc.,)

Effective bandwidth utilization per wavelength-

Finer granularity in provisioning within a λ

Reduced ONU cost due to more sharing and less inventory -

Fewer port counts and transceiver with shorter tuning range -

WDM transceiver common for all ONUs

within a code-cluster

Derive combined strength of constituent access and MUX schemes-

Compensate limitations

of independent schemes

Better network resilience -

ONU less prone to failure (semi-passive)-

Restoration cheaper (low inventory cost)

ConclusionsResource provisioning aspects of a W-OCDM PON using Heuristic optical code allocation approach

• Hybrid WDM PONs

offer resource provisioning with finer granularity in bandwidth

utilization

•Bidirectional traffic performance in a code-cluster is affected both by MUI and code contention, depending upon the traffic ratio in a PON

• Medium to high β

PONs

are capable of network expansion through the use of contention avoidance schemes

• For a given OOC, a trade-off exists between data packet length and user-cluster size due to MUI constraint

• Low β

PONs

benefit from over-provisioning by improving per-ONU data rate

Medium to high β

(>0.5) PONs

support n/w

scaling under a contention avoidance scheme provided packets are short

OOCs

with high n/w

ratio are crucial for MUI-constrained PONs

albeit with a trade-off between system throughput and per-ONU data rate

Final Remarks

Jayashree

Ratnam

Fiber-to-the-Premises

NCC-2011 Tutorial

•FTTP technology created an unchallenged niche in telecom access segment throughpassive, point-to-multipoint PON technology

• WDM in combination with TDM and OCDM can be significantly improve the scalability and provisioning aspects of PONs

• NexGen

PONs

are expected to deliver: new and legacy services, both analog and digital in a single converged conduit

• NGPONs

should gear up for serving as mobile backhaul networks with high accuracy of the clock timing for mobile services

• Burst-mode transceivers, Colorless ONUs

hold the key to massive deployment of NGPONs

•Scheduling policies accounting for traffic and multi-service characterization can deliver bandwidth efficient and fair bidirectional transmissions

• A synergy between fiber –based PONs

and advanced wireless technologies alone assuresfuture-proof access network infrastructure

• FTTP being a

“GREEN“

technology

(low energy with lifetime emissions reduced by 50% ) is bound to receive attractive incentives from many nations world over
